wasting time with you

Chapter 12 Those Good Memories We Had (6)
"What about godmother, didn't you come?"

"I asked her to go back to rest." Mu Yan lay back, and the wound was pulled by the activity, but he didn't even wrinkle his brows, "She is not idle here, either persuading me to transfer jobs or educating me to give her Marry a daughter-in-law, and your ears will be worn out."

The title of bachelor is a symbol of charm for men, but it is an eternal pain for the elderly.

Hearing the helplessness in his tone, Tan Zi was in a better mood, "That's your own fault, work and work don't satisfy her old man, at least we should settle the lifelong affairs first, give her a grandson, and I won't have time to miss you .”

"Then why don't you get married?" Mu Yan was obviously dissatisfied with his buddy who played with him since he was a child, "Since she has chosen this profession, she should believe that I have the ability to protect herself."

"You just protect yourself like this?" Tan Ziyue glanced at Mu Yan, blaming him for his injury, "Can you stop working so hard, is it necessary to rush to the front line? Anti-terrorism, EOD, anti-terrorism Hijacking, anti-hijacking, anti-narcotics, arresting criminals with guns, look at the work you have done, I am not talking about you, it is really too dangerous. You are in good health, you are the parents, don't work too hard." Of course Mu Yan understands brother However, he still said, "Someone has to do it, otherwise this society is not in chaos. Especially for a restless person like you, can't you go to heaven?"

"Without you, wouldn't the world stop spinning?" Tan Ziyue glared at him, "After all, he is the only child in the family, so he should properly consider the opinions of his godfather and godmother. Knowing that you love your job and work hard, then you won't leave the police force, but There's no need for such a hail of bullets all the time."

Of course it’s not that he doesn’t understand his parents’ painstaking efforts, but since he has chosen this profession, Mu Yan believes that the country has trained him for so many years, so he should stand in this position if he has the ability, instead of retreating because of danger.So he said, "You talk too much today."

"Play the piano to the cow." Tan Ziyue was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, closed his eyes and ignored him.

Mu Yan saw that he seemed to be asleep: "Didn't you come to see the patient? How did you fall asleep?"

Tan Ziyue turned his back to him, "Your life is hard, I'm never worried. You're so quiet, I'll rest for a while."

Run to the hospital to hide?Mu Yan was angry: "What, bankrupt, hiding from debt?"

"Get out!" Hearing Mu Yan's smile, Tan Ziyue muttered, "If I didn't see you as a patient, I would really beat you up."

"Hit me? Are you an opponent?"

Of course, Tan Ziyue can't take the top spot in terms of skills, but he refused to give in: "When I wake up, I will tell my godmother that you are here to save my girlfriend from getting hurt, and see if she doesn't talk about you."

Dare to threaten him with his mother.Mu Yan warned: "If you dare to talk nonsense, you will be shot first."

Tan Ziyue fell asleep.

Mu Yan got out of bed and covered him with a thin blanket, "I don't know where he went at night." He went to see his cousin Xi Yan.

As soon as he came out of the ward, he saw a rush in the corridor, avoiding the nurse who almost bumped into him, Mu Yan saw Xi Shuoliang sitting in the emergency room, and the doctor was bandaging his arm.

Mu Yan stood at the door and asked, "What's wrong?"

Xi Shuoliang turned around and saw that it was him, turned around and didn't answer.

Mu Yan frowned habitually, walked slowly to the end of the corridor, and asked succinctly to the two traffic policemen who were standing there talking: "A traffic accident?"

One of the traffic policemen looked up and recognized him, "Hi, pastoral team."

He is a special type of policeman, and he will have contact with all kinds of policemen. It is not surprising that the traffic policeman knows him. Mu Yan politely replied: "Hello." Then he raised his chin slightly and looked towards the direction of the consulting room: "The injured one is the one who caused the accident. By?"

The traffic policeman followed his direction and looked over: "In the urban area, the speed is 160 per hour, so it's hard to think that nothing will happen."

Suddenly thinking of An Yiruo, Mu Yan was silent for a moment: "He was seriously injured, I guess his mind is not too clear now, let him go to the police force to deal with this matter tomorrow."

The traffic police hesitated.

Mu Yan reassured him: "He is my friend, I guarantee that he will show up at the traffic brigade on time tomorrow morning."

The traffic policeman was relieved: "Then ask the Mu team to let him go to the traffic brigade on time to deal with this accident as soon as possible." After speaking, he noticed that Mu Yan was wearing a hospital gown, and asked with concern, "Is the Mu team injured? Is it serious? ?”

"It's okay, little hurt."

"The shepherd team has a good rest, let's go first."

Mu Yan nodded, thanked him for his accommodation, and sat outside the corridor.

Xi Shuoliang came out of the consulting room, as if he didn't see Mu Yan, he turned to leave.

"The traffic brigade goes to work at eight o'clock, and you go over there tomorrow to take notes." Ignoring the faint pain in his chest, Mu Yan stood up with his usual expression: "Mr. Xi misunderstood me?"

No matter who Mu Yan is, even a subtle expression change on other people's faces can't escape his eyes. Even though he hasn't seen him a few times, it doesn't mean he can't feel Xi Shuoliang's hostility.But he wasn't sure that Xi Shuoliang knew about the airport, and he didn't want to make An Yiruo embarrassed, so he asked tentatively.

Regarding the kiss they met for the first time, Mu Yan thought that the less people knew about it, the better.Although he was covering up his identity in order to handle the case, An Yiruo was a girl after all, and such things would always have a bad influence on her.

Xi Shuoliang stopped, with a gloomy face: "I don't know what the head pastor did to misunderstand me?"

His tone was wrong, the hostility was obvious, and Mu Yan felt it.

The two raised their eyes, and their gazes met in mid-air.

Mu Yan saw disdain and anger in Xi Shuoliang's eyes, but Xi Shuoliang saw calmness and indifference in his eyes.The two men stood face to face in the corridor of the hospital. Occasionally, doctors and nurses passed by and looked back frequently.

"I was on duty at the airport three months ago, and I met Ms. An for the first time." Mu Yan thought for a while, and spoke carefully, "She got involved in this case because of me, and Xiao Ran followed her because of a misunderstanding and my relationship with her." relationship with her."

Inexplicably felt that Mu Yan's explanation was a defense of An Yiruo.The scene of Mu Yan holding An Yiruo's hand when he was injured suddenly flashed in his mind, Xi Shuoliang felt like a stick in his throat.He withdrew his gaze, walked past Mu Yan, walked a few steps and then stopped: "The head shepherd has a special occupation, and Yi Ruo has no self-protection ability, in order to prevent her from being involved in danger, it is better to see her less in the future. Anyway According to what you said, you have no friendship."

"As for saving Yi Ruoling and hurting Chief Shepherd, I would like to say thank you as her boyfriend." When the words fell, he walked away steadily.

Mu glanced at his back, turned around and ran in the opposite direction.

When Mu Yan and Xi Shuoliang parted ways, An Yiruo was walking aimlessly on the street.

It's just that she didn't even realize that the streets she passed were all walked by Xi Shuoliang.

It turned out that she was remembering.

Does that mean: they are not far from the end.

As for the ending, An Yiruo wasn't sure if it was the one he expected.

Physically and mentally exhausted and tired.

Let it be, I am too tired to give in.

An Yiruo followed the flow of people numbly, without even noticing that someone was following her.It's just that she has been in the busy city, and the other party has no way to attack.She didn't know how long she had walked, but when she felt tired, she realized that she was near the neighborhood where Xi Shuoliang lived.

An Yiruo sat on the bench by the roadside, covered his face with his hands, and sighed deeply.

Until the phone rang, she settled down, took a deep breath and tried to make her voice sound normal, "Mom."

An's mother's voice was very soft, showing undisguised joy: "Where have you been, why haven't you come back? Shuo Liang has been here for a while, and I'm just waiting for you to serve dinner."

"Shuo Liang?" An Yiruo was startled: "He is at home."

"You don't know? Shuo Liang said that you have an appointment—" the mother's voice became distant, and An Yiruo smiled and shed tears.

Finally, she didn't give in every time.

Immediately having a direction, An Yiruo rushed to the side of the road to hail a taxi.

The smell of food wafts in upon entering, while Xi Shuoliang is sitting on the sofa in the living room playing chess with his father, An Yiruo's brows and eyes are full of smiles.

Xi Shuoliang was also laughing, "Why did you come back? Auntie said you went out a long time ago."

An Yiruo changed his shoes and sat down next to him, with a relaxed tone: "I wanted to go to the company and come back with you, but you arrived first."

Xi Shuoliang rubbed the top of her hair affectionately, "It's your birthday, so I left early for fear of being late due to traffic jams on the road." When he came out of the hospital, he went straight to Miyu's apartment, and only then did he know that she had moved back home.

An Yiruo resisted the urge to shake his hand, and said softly, "Let's talk, I'll help mom."

Father An smiled and said nothing, focusing on the chessboard: "Shuo Liang, your chess skills have improved a lot."

Before An Yiruo went abroad, Xi Shuoliang visited An's house once, and that was his first visit.That day he also played chess with An's father, but he lost badly, not to mention eager for success, and he had no strategy at all.

Father An didn't know that Xi Shuoliang was not interested at all in this respect.But shopping malls are like battlefields. In order to comprehend certain things, he began to slowly learn how to play chess, so as to train himself to master the methods of attack and defense. In addition, it is also for meditation.

Xi Shuoliang smiled modestly: "The gap is too big, he is far from my uncle's opponent." He moved up and down in words, and took a piece from the opponent.

Father An smiled, "Not necessarily. I'm old. With your talent, it will be a matter of time before you surpass Uncle." He raised his hand to protect the veteran with a flying elephant, so as not to be sent to the army.

Xi Shuoliang was not in a hurry to answer.

Father An said again: "It is said that chess was a product of the struggle between Chu and Han at the end of Qin Dynasty. Han Xin invented chess to train soldiers' attacking ability." It’s right to choose chess to meditate.” As if he had seen through something, he reminded, “It’s just that you shouldn’t attack too much, and when it’s time to take a step back, don’t be too stubborn to chase and fight. A man must be able to bend and stretch.”

Xi Shuoliang realized the good intentions of the old man, he hesitated for a while with the chess piece in his hand, and the position where it fell was not what he thought before.Father An understood his understanding, and smiled relievedly, "Shuo Liang, if she is a simple child, you have to take good care of her for me, and don't let her be wronged."

Xi Shuoliang nodded solemnly: "Uncle, please rest assured."

Parental love is always the most selfless.Even if he doesn't like his future son-in-law very much, he still puts his daughter's choice first, and even puts down his figure to persuade Xi Shuoliang to abandon the so-called family difference.Such good intentions moved An Yiruo.She stood in the kitchen, on the verge of tears.

During the dinner, An's mother warmly greeted Xi Shuoliang to eat, her smile was so kind that she didn't think he was an outsider at all, and An's father even took the initiative to find topics to chat with him, but An Yiruo was unusually silent.

Suddenly I feel sorry for my parents.For her, they are also giving in.As for Xi Shuoliang, An Yiruo knew that it was not easy for him to take this step.Seeing him communicating with his father intently, she realized his hard work.So, under the dining table, she gently shook his hand.

Xi Shuoliang looked as usual, flipped his palms slightly, gently squeezed her back and let go quickly.

An Yiruo buried her head in her meal, but her face blushed quietly.

Father An was in a good mood, Xi Shuoliang couldn't refuse, and had two drinks with the old man.His alcohol capacity was light, and he was a little drunk when he sat down at the table.But he didn't forget that there were serious things to do, so after An Yiruo helped An's mother pack the tableware, he took out the red velvet box that was prepared in the inner pocket of his suit.

An Yiruo stared blankly at him taking out the ring, and heard him say in a daze: "Uncle, Auntie, I am willing to take care of Yiruo for the rest of my life. I hope you will trust me and give your daughter to me."

I don't know how An's father will answer at all. I only know that Xi Shuoliang smiled, with a sense of relief in that smile, and then took her hand and put it on his lips and kissed her softly, "Yiruo, will you marry me?" ?”

Finally waited until this day.

An Yiruo's tears flowed silently.

Xi Shuoliang wiped her tears lightly with his fingertips, "Yiruo, you are willing to marry me, aren't you?"

A tear fell on the back of his hand, making him feel the hot temperature.In an instant, the soft corner of his heart tightened, and Xi Shuoliang blamed himself for thinking of giving up on her.

Turning around to look at the two elders of the An family, seeing them nodding encouragingly, Xi Shuoliang slowly but firmly put the ring representing the promise on An Yiruo's finger, and finally said, "Yiruo, believe that I can make you happy."

This was what An Yiruo heard most clearly and sincerely.

Completely forgetting the presence of her parents, and even more forgetting her shyness, she threw herself into the arms of Xi Shuoliang's family, choking with sobs: "I knew it, you love me."

Until then, the elders of An's family knew how much their daughter loved the man in front of them.Even if there were 1 dissatisfaction, it turned into a blessing.

For parents, nothing is more important than the happiness of their daughter.

As for Xi Shuoliang, he finally understood that An Yiruo was looking forward to their future.

Fortunately, I didn't miss you.

Xi Shuoliang quietly tightened his arms.

When Xi Shuoliang left, they hugged gently downstairs, as if they were reluctant to part with each other.

An Yiruo said softly in his arms: "This is the best birthday present I've ever received."

This is also the gift I want to give you the most. It may be a long time late, but I haven't missed it after all.

Xi Shuoliang bowed his head and kissed her lips.

This kiss is different from the usual intimacy, mixed with forbearance and sadness, entangled with infinite knots and thoughts.Maybe, they don't know the turmoil in each other's hearts. Maybe, both of them intend to use the softness of their lips and the temperature that offsets them to soothe the restlessness and anxiety in their hearts.

When their lips parted slightly and their foreheads touched, Xi Shuoliang asked in a low voice, "Is it my fault?"

His indifference, his neglect, his jealousy, his anger, she had too many reasons to blame him.

An Yiruo's cheeks were as red as blood, she nodded and shook her head lightly, then buried her face on the side of his neck, touching his skin with her warm breath: "Blame can never be worth love." Of course it was his fault, blame He refused to listen to the explanation, blamed him for not trusting her, blamed him for leaving her away, and blamed him for being indifferent all day and night, but these blames disappeared when he came to the door on his own initiative.

Xi Shuoliang put his palm on the top of her hair, "Yiruo, thank you."

An Yiruo snuggled closer into his arms.

On early summer nights, the wind is cool.However, they embraced each other without realizing it.

After maintaining the hugging posture for a long time, Xi Shuoliang let go, "Go back, be careful of catching a cold. I will pick you up tomorrow morning to go to work."

An Yiruo tidied his coat considerately, and carefully instructed, "Send me a message when you get home."

"Okay, I'll call."

It's like being inseparable when you are passionately in love.

Watching the taxi go away, An Yiruo smiled quietly, wrapped his coat tightly, turned and went into the building.

Passing by the security guard on duty in front of the elevator, the footsteps sounded far away and then suddenly approached, An Yiruo didn't notice anything unusual, just stood quietly in front of the elevator and waited, however, what came was a dull and heart-rending pain in the back of his head pain.

Before she lost consciousness, she vaguely heard someone say, "I'll take you away." Then, her body was gently hugged.
